Description
It's a well car (meant for shipping containers). Uses the same magnetic couplers and bogeys/wheel trucks as my other railcars. Assorted M3 screws and plastic cement required for assembly. This was probably my fastest railcar design/build yet. It's actually based off of the chassis that I designed for my forth-coming passenger car (prototypes of which you can see in the background of pics). When I started assembling the first passenger car prototype, I thought... "well that basically already looks like a well car, so might as well make it into a well car." That's my story. Enjoy!!
Shipping containers can be downloaded from my other project here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7089498
Update 12 July 2025: Updated WellCarTopPlate.stl to eliminate corner interference seen in turns between the corners of the Top Plate and the Ladder on my Boxcar. This change is not reflected in the photographs.
